Bloop Server Tester

Utility for testing bloop server implementations and performance.

Installation

npm i -g bloop-server-tester

Usage

To get a list of all commands and their arguments/options, run:

bloop-server-tester --help

By default, the tester will not validate server certificates. If you wish to do so, you can enable validation for any command by supplying the --validate-cert option.

Each command uses an auth string to connect. An auth string is always in the following format:

<client-id>:<client-secret>@<host>:<port>

Test authentication

Test authentication with a given client ID and secret:

bloop-server-tester auth <auth-string>

Test ping reply time

Test the ping reply time of a server with a given number of iterations (defaults to 10):

bloop-server-tester ping -i 10 <auth-string>

Load test server

You can continuously load test your server with a given number of connections and UIDs:

bloop-server-tester load-test -c 15 -u ababababababab acacacacacacac <auth-string>

This will send a bloop through every connection every 500ms.
